SMOKING PIPE.

Application filed October 19 1927. Serial No. 227,111.

This invention relates to smoking pipes and has for an object to provide a pipe with an improved bowl formed with a stor age chamber in addition to the usual combustion chamber or bowl proper.

The storage chamber permits of carrying an extra supplyof tobacco orother smokroduct in the pipe itself, from which.

able supp y the combustion chamber or bowl proper may bereadily replenished, when 1ts contents have been consumed, without the inconvenience of resorting to some extraneous source of supply such as a pouch or can,

Another advantage of the improved construction is that the storage chamber is 10- cated irifront of the conibustion chan'iber sorthat the portion of the bowl which is rasped by the hand in removing the pipe 4 or placing it into the mouth of the smoker remains'cool to the touch.

' the disadvantages of the ordinary pipe is that the bowl becomes quite hot in smoking and consequently disagreeable to touch.

Furthermore, in practice, I have found that the combustion chamber of my im-.

proved pipe remains dry and sweet, thus affording a cool dry smokewithout objec:

. tionable odor.

With these and other objects in view, the invention comprises the novel features of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described. It is to be understood that modifications may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as pointed out in the claims.

In the accomdpanying drawings, illustrating a preferre embo iment of the invention:-'-

Figure 1 is a longitudinal sectional view,

of the improved bowl, with the usual stem attached thereto; and, I 1

The wall 2 is preferably, though not necessarily, formed integral with the bowl, and itstops considerably short of the bottom of the bowl so as to leave an intercommunicating passage 5 between the two compartments 3 and 4. a I

A smoke-outlet passage .6 is formed through the neck and rear wall of the bowl 1, leading from the passageway of the usual stem 7 and opening directly intothe lower rear eud ot the compartment 4. I p The compartment 3 constitutes the tobacco storage chamberof the improved, pipe,

while the compartment 4 functions as a 00 combustion chamber, or bowl proper, in which the tobacco is consumed in smoking. These compartments. are preferably so arranged that the storage chamber 3 is front of the combustion chamber 4. 1 In use of the pipe botlrthe chambers 3 and 4 are filled with tobacco. The two chambers may be filled directly, or the forward end of the bowl may be inserted in a can or pouch and chambers filled by 10 pushing the tobacco with the finger through the chamber 3 and passage 5 into the chamber 4 until both chambers are filled. The tobacco is then lighted at the top of the combustion chamber 4. When the tobacco 7 in this chamber has been consumed it can be conveniently refilled from the extra supply. carried in the storage chamber 3 by merely pushing or tampin the tobacco from the chamber 3, through t e passage 5, into so the chamber 4.

It is to be particularl noted that in my improved construction t e suction or draft through the passage 6 is applied directly to the combustion chamber 4 and consequently the tobacco in the storage chamber 3 cannot be ignited, nor isit necessary to close gr seal the opening at the top of that cham- I do not, of course, limit myself to the particular design of bowl shown, as the in-' vention may be embodied in bowls of various different shapes. i

What I claim is p 1. In a smoking pipe, a bowl having a transverse partitionextending from the top downward part Way to the bottom to divide the bowl-cavity into two compartments with l a connecting passage at their lower ends, and a smoke-outlet passage through the back of the bowl opcnin directly into the rear bottom portion of tie bowl cavity.

2. In a smoking pipe, a bowl interiorly divided into two compartments, located one 5 in front of the other, with an intercommunicating passage at their bottoms, the forward one of sa d compartments consti- UNGER.
